Absolutely perfect. "You and me and devil makes three." I loved the glowy effects. The song was a good choice - I don't know it, but I liked the rhythm to it. Thanks for tackling the theme! =)

Thanks very much. I did mean to do Mac for last month's theme but didn't get round to it so I adapted my idea to make it an episodic.

You are my favorite person EVER. A well made VM vid about Mac to a Bettie Serveert song? You've hit the royal trifecta of joy.

Thank you very much I am flattered. :D Attagirl just screamed out to be vidded and after listening to it on replay for about 4 days Mac was the obvious.

Again thanks for the compliments.

Charmax, I love all your videos. I loved this video. I especially loved that you did it on Mac. I love the flashes and everything. Excellent video. The song choice was great as well. Can't wait to see what next you come up with.

It was quite a fun vid to make once I accepted the shortage of material. I do still have a few ideas for Veronica Mars vids but I don't know whether I will get around to any of them before the new season starts. Then I am bound to get all excited about new footage and want to use that instead.lol

That was awesome. I've always totally dug Mac, and that song was great for this episode. Great job with the challenge!

And just out of curiousity, what program do you use to edit your vids?

charmax August 24 2005, 20:55:35 UTC

Thanks. :D I thought Mac was a really interesting character and it would be nice if she were to return in the second season. I think there is a lot more that can be done with her. And I totally dig her too. lol

As for what I use to edit - It's Adobe premiere pro and Adobe After Effects.

I'm like, seriously technologically challenged, and it's somewhat of a miracle that I can work WMM. Is Adobe difficult to use or complicated? Or is it pretty user friendly?

charmax August 24 2005, 21:58:21 UTC

After Effects is not user friendly at all. It's the industry standard in video editing and it's something I am still getting to grips with. It's really not something you can just pick up without reading a few books on. Premiere Pro is a little better but again it's will take a little while to get the hang of the interface. Once you find your footing though you don't look back. :) Adobe does do free trials if you want to give them a test drive.

Links are below.
Good luck if you decide to try them out.

That was lovely! I love Mac and I loved her in this episode. You did such a great job of telling her story!

charmax August 25 2005, 07:32:31 UTC

I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for telling me. :)
